Mayor gets in the Swing

The Mayor of Wolverhampton, Councillor Phil Batesman, today invited local golfers to swing at a Wolverhampton club. The Mayor‘s Charity Golf Day is expected to raise more than £1.300 for local charities. Photographed along with local investors Terry Reynolds and Martin Stokes, the Mayor said he loved to swing, and that he has been looking forward to this for months.

Mr. Dave Smith of Carter Road is surprised by the Mayor‘s comments. “A swinger, is he? Well, I guess I‘m glad he‘s taken it upon him to swing for us, God knows I‘m no swinger myself”, the 32-year old laughs. “If his swinging could benefit charities in Whitmore Reans I can‘t see anything wrong with that.”
